Lair take a further look at the the MSI NX8800GT-T2D512E-OC Video Card.
Here's a bit:
The 8800GT, and as tested today, the MSI NX8800GT-T2D512E-OC changes all of that. This is the first time in years I have been this impressed with a mainstream priced product. The performance isn't 40% slower than the top end part, which was typically the norm before, but it either comes within 10% of the high-end parts, and in some cases, surpasses it. We had some other products here that matches the MSI NX8800GT in terms of pricing, but we left those in the box as an 8600GT is akin to bringing a putty knife to a gun fight.
The performance numbers in A-list games, albeit demos were only available at the time of testing, were simply amazing. We were able to run our gameplay tests at high detail levels at 1680x1050 widescreen resolutions and the MSI NX8800GT-T2D512E-OC handled it with aplomb. MSI should hold a slight edge over some competitors who are sticking closer to NVIDIA's reference design as the MSI NX8800GT-T2D512E-OC comes overclocked out of the box.
Despite using less power than both the GTS and GTX models, the MSI NX8800GT-T2D512E-OC does get very warm. Initially, under full load, the GPU registered a scorching 93deg.C in our Antec 900 case, though we had the case fans running in silent mode. Even at these temperatures, the MSI 8800GT's fan was relatively quiet. When we turned on the Antec's stock fans to full speed, the temperature lowered slightly to 90deg.C.
